Re: Not at that price!

They know that 2x mode is more efficient right?

Sometimes I wonder... you'd think it would be obvious eh? I tried to explain to my account rep that my hotspot uses less bandwidth than most residential subs and that increasing my bandwidth would not increase the amount of gigs used.

The AP is 2X capable and has some 2X SMs on it already. Seemed like a no-brainer to me but they want to gouge me.

I might just cancel their service and take down my hotspot, reducing my cost. I can always move my clients onto our internal Cisco LWAPs with a guest portal that tunnels out to the internet through our corporate WAN. I was looking for an excuse to add more Cisco LWAPs anyway.

I agree.

Based on our conversations over the years, it sounds like they might need to be left behind.
